There is a popular Korean saying that people often use after setting or failing their New Year\u2019s resolution. It is called,\u201c<em><span style=\"color: #808000\">\uc791\uc2ec\uc0bc\uc77c<\/span><\/em>,\u201d and this phrase means \u201ca goal kept for only three days.\u201d People often use this expression to one\u2019s short-lived New Year\u2019s resolution. If one of your resolutions is improving your Korean skills, I am here to help you to keep up with your goal.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in learning about the Hangeul (<span style=\"color: #808000\"><em>\ud55c\uae00<\/em><\/span>&#8211; Korean Script) you can read this post, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/korean\/the-scientific-and-phonetic-korean-script-%ed%95%9c%ea%b8%80hangeul-1\/\">The scientific and Phonetic Script <em><span style=\"color: #808000\">\ud55c\uae00<\/span><\/em> (Hangeul) #1.<\/a>\u201d<br \/>\nAlthough some Korean sounds do not correspond to the sounds in English, this post will give you a general idea on how to read the Romanization of the Korean language. Learning to read and write <em><span style=\"color: #808000\">\ud55c\uae00<\/span><\/em> is not as difficult as you think, so I would like to encourage you to study the Korean alphabet in order to become a natural and fluent Korean speaker in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some examples of the Romanization of the Korean language:<br \/>\n1.
